In April 2007, Newsweek called him the most powerful actor in Hollywood.[2] Smith has been nominated for five Golden Globe Awards, two Academy Awards, and has won four Grammy Awards. Sixteen of the nineteen fiction films he has acted in have accumulated worldwide gross earnings of over $100 million, and five took in over $500 million in global box office receipts.
